DVD Reviews of The Yearling

DVD Review: The Yearling
Summary: 3 Stars

Good movie for the time, but not the same as the book. However, enjoyed the movie - a little sad but it teaches a lesson.

DVD Review: Pleasant, with drama, life in the country.
Summary: 5 Stars

A pioneer family's life in the woods in the 1800's. A lot of drama, some adventure, bears, deer, a fawn, praying the crops will survive, and some humor. I like country life, and liked seeing the way it was growing up on a farm in the Florida woods. We see pioneer children had a closer relationship with their parents then; as the nearest neighbor kid was a mile walk away, times were slower, no TV, children contributed to the family income at a very young age working the farm, children helped prepare meals, children took on responsibilities at a younger age, parents did things directly for their children then, such as medical-care and making things for them that today are purchased, children not only had a stay-at-home mom, but a stay-at-home dad too all working the family farm or family-business, family members depended upon one another. Young Gregory Peck plays the father in his best film. Jane Wyman plays the mother. She was President Reagan's first wife in real life. Based upon the novel.

DVD Review: A story about the curse
Summary: 1 Stars

Should be banned from children and adult viewing alike. There was no redeeming factor to this movie. It magnifies all the negative aspets of life because of the curse brought about because of original sin. I threw the DVD away as soon as I watched it and wished I hadn't watched it.

There is enough misery in life without watching movies about it. If you want good animal stories watch the Lassie movies and early TV programs. They provide an answer to life's challenges not a review of them.

DVD Review: HUH ?!
Summary: 4 Stars

Does it strike anybody else kind of odd that the DVD cover art for this film features a mountainous background ? The entire story is set in Florida !?

DVD Review: My Birthday Review
Summary: 5 Stars

I chose to review this film on my birthday because it's one of my favorites.
I love the way the little boy becomes so fondly atatched to his baby deer.
It's so beautiful and so sweet.It's so happy, the fun and tenderness with his new pet.
It is sad too that both the little boy and the deer part in such a way.
But at least the time they spent together was wonderful and brilliantly filmed.
And that's my birthday review.....

Description of The Yearling

Child actor Claude Jarman Jr. won a Special Oscar for his lead performance as the boy hero of Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings' novel, which concerns a lad's love of a fawn in the post-Civil War era. Gregory Peck and Jane Wyman are memorable as his parents, their emotions divided in the aftermath of so much tragedy and their lives affected by the boy's passion for his yearling. Clarence Brown (National Velvet) directed this 1946 heartbreaker, which will not leave a dry eye in the room. A handsome, leisurely drama at more than two hours, shorter versions simply don't cut it. --Tom Keogh
Life abounds in the 1870s Florida scrubland that's home to young Jody Baxter. There are bears to hunt, cash crops to plant, evenings of storytelling with Pa and Ma... and there are timeless lessons of love and letting go that Jody learns from Flag, the orphaned pet fawn that follows him around with devotion.
